In this month's issue....

Farm succession - It is one of the toughest challenges for all those involved with farming. How do you take over the family farm successfully and still be able to talk to Mum and Dad and the other siblings. Young Country talks to an expert who offers some timely advice for those thinking of taking on this issue. And then there are some pointers on who to call next to put the plan into action.

- Encouraging young people to get a future in the dairy industry is the motivation behind Dairy NZ's Get Fresh campaign. The campaign's mixture of information, inspiration and financial incentive is winning over students and sending them down the white-gold road.

Merino Magician
- Christina Perriam is a multi faceted, driven young woman. At heart she is a passionate fashion designer who uses merino wool to create high end women's clothing. But there is much more to this energetic clothes creator than that.

Tally Ho
- Photos from the hunt field with Alexandra Petersen.

Cut a Track
- The physical aspect of a career shearing puts many young people off taking up the challenge. But for Tony Mallinson a handpiece has provided him with a chance of owning his own high country farm.
